So given all the hoses, piping and connections associated with an AC system, it wouldn't make sense NOT to have an anti-siphon loops(s).. now...
Re-read the definition of "waterline" in the rule above. That's the waterline that counts. Why would anti-siphon on an A/C line not be an issue?...
H 22.7f: f. The discharge location shall be above the waterline created by maximum conditions of the boat's loading, heel, trim and motion...
Where'd that water come from? More often than not, from someplace completely different from where you found it. The gremlins put it there merely...
And furthermore read up on the Canadian requirements for bilge pumps . No mention of check valves there either....
It is quite sunny and clear on my parade. Please cite this certification you speak of. AYBC prohibits check valves on bilge pump systems on the...
Why? Check valves are a bad idea on bilge discharges, if they get jammed/gummed up, and they do you are SOL. That's the whole idea of having a...
My Hatteras had a whole bunch of through hulls near the water line... bilge pumps, shower sumps, aircon discharge, stabilizer cooling water, deck...
I tend to agree with NYcap, but then again buying a pleasure craft is seldom a rational decision; the OP is just taking the irrationality up a...
Funny thing, was just talking to a buddy and he reminded me Striker was still in business. I have no experience with them direct or indirect....
Custom Steel Boats right up the road from me in Bayboro (well technically Merrit) has made a number of private boats in that range. Top flight...
I'll likely be out there for a week in each of July and August. I was born and raised there in the Bay Area and boated all along the west coast...
We, a middle aged couple lived aboard and cruised 12,000 miles on a Hatteras 56MY full time for 5 years, and part time for another year and a...
Not sure what that is either. Picture? Do you mean this thing or something like it?...
Navigator makes a good, seaworthy honest boat here in the US. The interior is not for everyone, but if you like it, I'd go for that over an iffy...
The set up at Ayala Cove is unique. Bow and stern tie up is mandatory. The reason for the lengths is that the common practice is to loop the line...
My boat had a slew of 12 volt AC lamps (stepped down from 120) courtesy of a PO. So, yes you need to check.
I will heartily second the recommendation of Zimars. They are almost always denser than Camps.. look at the weight for each for a given size. Once...
You're welcome, however a lot of the same info is available on the charts, Coast Pilot and the Local Notices To Mariners, enough to pretty much...
Basically not passable. Some areas bare at low tide, many with controlling depth <3ft. CG has been considering officially discontinuing the...
